The pair met in 1987 while attending the Lycée Carnot secondary school in Paris and became friends.

They started their music partnership with Darlin, a guitar-based group, formed in 1992. However, the group was disbanded not long after leading to the emergence of Daft Punk.

The duo rose to the limelight in 1993 after the release of “Homework”, their debut album, which contained hit tracks including “Da Funk’” and “Around The World.”.

 

Daft Punk continued to pull the strings thereafter with several beautiful music offerings which topped charts, snagged positive reviews as well as awards.

The pair also had collaborative projects with other music heavyweights including The Weeknd and Kanye West. They released “Get Lucky”, in 2013 their global hit single, featuring Pharrell Williams and Nile Rodgers.

“Random Access Memories”, their final official release together, earned the pair a Grammy for best album of 2013. Since 2014, their presence in the global music landscape has, however, dwindled raising concerns among fans.
